NHS Unit Birthing Pool Programmes
With NICE recommending 1 birth pool per 1000 births, many Trusts are struggling with limited space to add pools. Our portable solutions allow a room to remain flexible. >> Go to NHS Community Programmes instead
The Good Birth Company works with more than 25 NHS delivery suites, labour wards and birth centres that use our portable birthing pool solutions. Our customers are typically seeking to increase the availability of birthing pools by using them in rooms that are not large enough to accommodate built-in solutions.
Our portable Birth Pool in a Box pools can be added to an existing unit with limited work on electrical and plumbing services in the room.
Customers with pools in a unit include:

birth pool in a box Professional pools are FREE to NHS Trusts with the purchase of 20 disposable liners at £25 each. The Professional pools are particularly designed for repeated use with their higher-spec material and double-skinned base.
"The adjustable height and the soft, yet sturdy sides of the pool were great assets when we managed a shoulder dystocia birth. A rigid-sided pool would have made it much more difficult." - Lynn Mayo, Team Leader, Andover Birth Centre
"We are so pleased with the birth pool in a box that we are now seriously considering whether a planned fixed pool is the right option for us." - Elaine Torrance, Head of Midwifery, Jersey General Hospital |
